yeah, so it's a link to Inside Edition, which is the longest-running syndicated news program and has been running since 1989 and is currently syndicated by CBS.

You can verify it's the same channel as their official channel because Inside Edition's website (https://www.insideedition.com/ see YT link in top-left corner) links directly to it.

Media Bias Fact Check rates them generally factual -- https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/inside-edition/

It's not especially highly rated as TV news, saw it described as "the fast food of TV news," but I didn't see anything that described it as substantially non-factual.

What's your issue with Inside Edition, again?

They can't answer that, because the source was never the issue, they never even clicked through to see what the source was. Them being a bootlicker who can't help but jump to the defence of and make excuses for the pigs is the only reason for this thread..
